"So. What's your name?" Amy asked the goat monster, he hesitated but answered.
"My name is Joseph. But most people call me Jo"
"Nice to meet you Jo, My name is Amy. Care to join me?"
"Uh sure. But in what exactly?"
"In my adventure trough this world! To get home! To get my memories back" Amy Said full of determination, After She said that Jo began to laugh hysterically.
"What? What's wrong?"
"N-no its just that haha there is no way out of this" Amy heard what Jo said 'is there really no way to get home? Whatever home is. I still can't remember anything, strange...' Jo wiped a tear from laughter from his eyes. he looked very serious now.
"Well there is a way to get out of here but- no...there is no way out" Amy heard barely what Jo said, but she still heard it. 'maybe there is a way to get home' she tough.
"Hey what did you say?" Amy asked full of curiosity, wondering if there is a way out of here.
"What? OH NO nononononononono NO I'm NOT gonna say it! NO!" Jo denied to say whatever he wanted to say, Amy really wanted to know how she would get out of here.
"Please? Why not?"
"It is too dangerous, it might even gonna kill you!"
"Please tell me, Pleaseeeee?" Amy did  the puppy dog eyes. After a while Jo gave in.
"OKAY okay, Just stop doing the puppy dog eyes!" Jo sighed in defeat as Amy cheered.
"I would not cheer so fast I'm gonna tell you the way to get to the surface. The way to get home. But don't say I didn't warn ya! Now before we start do you know the history of the three races?"
"Yes. Yes I do"
"Well then. Good. The only way to go home is that you must go trough hell, And, Past Persephone. But what makes it harder is that there are humans and monsters who protect the entrance from anyone or anything from passing trough. And they are really good guards. They say that they are the best guards you can find here."
"Ok seems easy enou-." Amy was cut off by Jo.
"BUT what makes it even MORE complicated is the WHOLE journey to that point. We literally have to go to the other side of this place!" Jo explained, Amy just smiled and stood up.
"Well then. Seems like we  have a journey up on ahead." Amy turned around to walk back to the forest but Jo stopped her by grabbing her wrist.
"PLEASE. Amy don't do this. This has happened before and they always die! Why can't you just stay here. And be happy? Do you remember anything from your past?" Jo asked, he really didn't want to have yet another human killed because they started this so called 'journey', the humans normally wouldn't die from the monsters but from them.
"No. Not yet. But I have this feeling that I have to do it. Jo PLEASE would you like to join me in this adventure?" Jo looked shocked and confused by the question, No one has asked him that before, he mostly only watches the humans from a safe distance.
"M-me? Why me?"
"Because you look like you could use a friend, Aaand you know more of this place than me. Also you look like trustworthy person."
"I would love to go on this adventure with you."
"Well then. Now that that's settled" Amy grabs Jo's hand "where to go now?"
"Follow me!" And they both walk back into the grey forest.

But what they didn't know was that a certain bear was eavesdropping on them.
"Heh. Everything goes exactly like I have planned" he smirked as he disappeared in a blink of an eye.
